TOEIC 聽力 Part 3 — 題目

段落

Woman A: Thanks for coming, everyone. Let's get started. The primary goal today is to lock down the timeline for the Metropolis project. We're currently looking at a Q3 launch, but we need to firm up the key milestones.
Man B: I agree. I've drafted a preliminary schedule based on our last discussion. It outlines the design phase, development, and testing. I've put a copy in the shared drive.
Woman A: Excellent. Did you factor in the potential delays with the component sourcing? We had a similar issue last year with theipherals.
Man B: Yes, I've included a buffer of about ten days for that. It seems prudent, especially with the upcoming neighborhood cleanup event potentially impacting local logistics around the development site.
Woman C: Speaking of the cleanup event, have we confirmed volunteer numbers yet? That might affect site access during the final testing phase if it's too close.
Woman A: Good point, Sarah. Let’s address that after we finalize the project schedule. For now, let’s focus on approving these milestones. Does the Q3 end date still look feasible, David?
Man B: With the current plan and the buffer, yes, it should be achievable. We'll just need to monitor the component lead times closely.

題目

What concern does Woman C raise about the cleanup event?

選項

  1. A. It might interfere with final testing access. ✓
  2. B. The volunteer turnout is uncertain.
  3. C. It could cause traffic congestion.
  4. D. It overlaps with the project launch.

正確答案

A. It might interfere with final testing access.

解析

📖 文章翻譯 — 大家好，謝謝各位前來。我們開始吧。我們今天的首要目標是確定都會專案（Metropolis project）的時間表。我們目前預計第三季上市，但需要確定重要的里程碑。我同意。我根據上次的討論起草了一份初步的時間表。它概述了設計、開發和測試階段。我已將一份副本放在共享磁碟機裡。太好了。您有考慮到零件採購潛在的延遲嗎？去年我們在週邊設備（peripherals）上也遇到過類似的問題。是的，我為此預留了約十天的緩衝時間。
📝 答案解析 — 根據文意，Woman A 提到「Did you factor in the potential delays with the component sourcing? We had a similar issue last year with the peripherals.」（您有考慮到零件採購潛在的延遲嗎？去年我們在週邊設備上也遇到過類似的問題。）這表示零件採購的延遲，尤其是週邊設備零件，是 Woman A 擔心的潛在問題，它可能影響專案的進行。
💡 應試技巧 — 聽到「potential delays」或「similar issue」等提示詞時，要特別留意後續討論的內容，因為這通常是講者提出擔憂的關鍵點。
📊 錯誤選項分析 —
1) It might interfere with final testing access. — Woman A 擔心的是「component sourcing」（零件採購），並非「final testing access」（最終測試存取）。
2) The volunteer turnout is uncertain. — 對話內容與志工招募或參與人數無關。
3) It could cause traffic congestion. — 對話中沒有提到任何關於交通壅塞的討論。
4) It overlaps with the project launch. — Woman A 擔心的是零件採購的延遲，而不是與專案上市時間重疊。
